Why do we live? Is it for the books? The chapter
tests? Or how about the projects? Certainly not, we
live for the fun and what fun we have. A common
complaint heard in Charlevoix is that there is "nothing
to do." Well students at CHS avoided this problem by
getting involved in things that make up our student life.
We got rowdy for homecoming, giddy for prom, and
excited with trends. There were frequent dances this
year, raising money for anything from the senior class
to the after prom breakfast. There were lip syncs that
rocked the gym and raised a few eyebrows, Jeeps
lined up in the student parking lot, and a few sporadic
events that kept administration guessing and students
hopping. There was never a shortage of new trends
at CHS, from power bead bracelets seen on the wrists
of many a girl to the variety of cargo pants seen on
just about every guy, students here were always up on
the latest. Student life is all about making the best out
of what we are given. And CHS students do just this.
As you turn the following pages, it will be obvious that
we are a varied group, with an anything but a
traditional S/oryofQ/s. -Jessica Halverson

A Legendary Tale of Festivities, Victory, and Harmony

Homecoming: a week full of
excitement, spirit, and enthusiasm,
offering a very welcomed, much
anticipated breath of fresh air.

The week started off with the
beeping of alarm clocks and CHS
students jumping out of bed and
heading off to school in their most
stylish pajamas. The following
days consisted of students
parading around in the color
assigned to their grade, their wild
and craziest hats, dressing as their
favorite superhero, and last but
certainly not least, the traditional
maroon and white day. Seniors

showed the most spirit when it
came to dressing up each day.

Spirit Week ended with the
gathering of CHS students into the
gym for the homecoming pep rally.

Two games were added to the
agenda. One game was the
hilarious amoeba race which
allowed the seniors to snag one of
many victories, crossing the finish
line first. The lip sync is another
well-known highlight of the
assembly.

"I thought it was fun to dress
up in that tight, blue jump suit,"
sophomore Shawn McDonough

said in regard to his lip sync attire.

The football game ended
triumphantly with a win for the
Rayders, 29-8, taking down the
Elks. This was their first and only
win for the 1999 season.

"I was happy to experience a
win on homecoming," coach Todd
Klinger said.

Homecoming week came to
an end with the always popular
dance, where King Brian Cornett
and Queen Erika Kammermann,
along with the rest of the student
body, danced the night away.

The Triumphs and

You'd think it was the end of
the world by the way some people
say good-bye before class. Sad
eyes, the parting of hands, and the
little kiss that longs to be so much
more. That is of course until the
devastating break up. Ahh...such
are high school relationships.

But what is a relationship?
Senior Jon Sell seems to think,
simply, that a relationship is the
"togetherness of people."

High school relationships
usually begin as friendships, and
evolve from there.

But how serious should
students get in high school?

Getting too serious will result in
how you prioritize your life, and

Trials of Teenage Togetherness

according to Enrichment teacher
Ms. Mary Lieberman, "students
shouldn't limit their options for later
in life. It's good to stay flexible."

Some students disagree,
thinking dating will give them more
experiences to determine what
special qualities they're searching
for in another person.

"I look for good teeth, and he
has to respect you," said junior
Melissa McDonough, discussing
those qualities.

Once you find the one you
love, there's a constant desire to
display your affection, sometimes
publicly. This practice is worth one
point on your record at CHS, and
often the topic of others' gossip.

"I think it's inappropriate," said
science teacher Mr. Tim Volovsek,
discussing P.D.A.'s (Public
Displays of Affection).

Sophomore Brad Ramsey
agrees, "Some things are okay, but
not making out, or groping...," yet
he was quick to point out that he
sometimes violates his own rules.

Where will these relationships
lead? Mostly nowhere, but there
are exceptions.

"My wife and I began
dating in 7th grade," said Principal
Gary Grundman.

Tyler Lieberman

PUPPY LOVE. Gazing into each other's
starry eyes, senior Brian Hater and
sophomore Kelly Reid wait for the bell to
ring and dismiss them to class. In an
impromptu survey, Hater and Reid were
nominated as a "model couple" because of
their pure loyalty and constant empathy
towards others (Photo by Mimi Lopez).

ANOTHER WORLD. Concentrating only
on each other, sophomores Ryan Rafacz
and Kati Swenor block out the commotion
of other CHS students. Rafacz and Swenor
love being together, and have had a strong
relationship for quite some time Rafacz
said, "We've been together for 10 months
and we're still going strong" (Photo by Mimi
Lopez).

MY MAIN SQUEEZE. Embracing in a
warm cuddle, freshmen couple Matt
Kilkenny and Candace Boss are

STAR-CROSSED LOVERS. "Romeo, oh
Romeo, when will thou get out of U.S.
History?" Senior Kerstin Larsen welcomes
the arrival of her junior boyfriend, Troy
Smith. Despite being fit for each other, the
two managed to hold off on affection until
after school hours (Photo by Mimi Lopez).

Pea Coats- An old trend that has resurfaced in
outerwear among students is the Pea Coat. Colors,
styles, and prices of the Pea doat vary, while the
most popular color is navy. Pea Coats originated a|
US naval ships to keep the sailors warm on bo<
"Pea Coats are warm and the in-thing," said jur
Leslie Hoffman (Photo by Shawn McDonough)B

Keg Chains - it is a way to

show off new wheels, and
show a person's interests
by hanging them from
your keys. Key chains at
CHS have everything
chained to them, from
mountain climbing hooks
to college logos (Photo b

Glasses - To see or not to see. They
come in all different sizes and different
kinds and are also worn with fake lenses strictly
for fashion. They're thick and they're thin, they're
light and they're dark. The real ones can be costly, with
prices in the hundreds, but the fakes ones are much
cheaper. Sophomore Elissa Wood wears glasses not
only for fashion purposes, but also to help her read
(Photo by Mark Bennett).

Lagged Hail* - The layered ha
craze was started by Claire
Danes. Layered hair can be
short and shaggy, or long and
flowing. But either way, it's
definitely a fashion statement.
Layered hair can be styled by
just about anyone, depending
on how much a person is
willing to pay.

BiffceBStoefcS- If you want to keep your feet
comfortable all year round, with or without
socks, Birkenstocks are where it's at with
CHS students. These popular sandals are
known for being comfortable, versatile,
and long lasting. Even though the prices
can run high ($1 00 for an average pair),
most students agree they're worth the
cash.

Pissa- These habit forming cafeteria
pizzas are the top choice for most
students. They range from supreme to
just cheese, so there is a taste for
everyone. Not just at lunch will you find
someone munching on a pizza, but also
throughout the day. And for only a buck,
who can beat it!

Dr. MartettS - These lug sole
oxfords are a timeless classic at
CHS. While the most popular
style is the brown oxford, boots
and other wacky styles are also
worn. An average pair of Dr.
Martens cost about $100 dollars
(Photo by Shawn McDonough).

Vests - Whether on the ski hill or
chillin' in class, vests have been
keeping students warm this year.
They can be fleece or down
and can differ in price from
$20-$100. They vary in all \&
different colors and brands.
Senior Kim Potter sports her
favorite vest (Photo by Brie
Woodhouse).

Cell Pboaes-Cell phones are a huge hit.

Although at CHS students will receive

discipline points for having one during

school hours, it is popular for students to

have a cell phone waiting for them in their

car or locker. It's a great way for friends

to keep in touch while away from home.

Parents also like when their kids have

phones so they can keep tabs on them at

all times. The cost usually depends on

which plan you choose, which can range

from $40-$60 per month (Photo By Mark

Bennett).

1 a grand- Looking
at the cars that some students drive,
a student realizes that whatever is cheap
is good. For your 16th birthday, if you don't
receive a new car from your parents, you fall
into a category with most CHS students. Anything
you can get your hands on to drive is what is
in. Senior TJ Christiansen shows off his 1 988
Jeep, which he purchased for under $1000

-A trend that
can be seen in Mrs. Karen Peters-
on's room, colored iMacs of many
flavors line the computer table. These
iMacs have popped up on many TV shows,
commercials and ads, as they are unusual and
unique to the computer scene. One of these can cost
you $1200, but equipped with the latest
technology, it can be well worth the price.

Whether sending a joke to your
friend or staying in touch with an out-of-
town relative, email messages are a faster
and cheaper alternative to the old
fashioned US Postal Service "snail mail."
The majority of students have an email
account with Hotmail, an Internet site with
free email accounts.

- For most students, their first
stop in the morning is to a convenience
store to pick up a steaming cup of
cappuccino. If the student is running
late, he/she can also pick up some from
the cafeteria. Not only does it taste
good, some kids say that it is the only
thing that gets them through a tough
day at CHS. Flavors vary, with the
most popular being Mocha.

SttOWblades - This new sport takes skiing to
another level. The re-sized skis allow a
person to get vertical and big air. This
activity is becoming more and more
popular among the students who can
afford it. A nice set up of snowblades,
bindings, and boots, cost close to $400 or
more. This may limit the amount of riders,
but those who can afford it, love it.

Karma bpaeelete - a different

kind of bracelet that has shown
up on the wrists of students is
the karma bracelet.
Depending on the color
chosen, the karma beads can
represent strength, love, and
prosperity, among other things.
The bracelets range in price
from $3- $20.

Jobs provide cash, know-how, & hassle for students

It's Friday afternoon and
you've just gotten your allowance
and you're shopping with your
friends downtown. You walk into
your favorite store and are
shocked to find your biology
partner behind the counter.

It's not an uncommon
sight to find a fellow classmate
busy at work during the school
year. Some of the local shops that
students work at include clothing
stores, fast food restaurants, and
grocery stores.

"I'm working to make
money for college," said senior
Christine Potee.

Many students choose to
have jobs for various reasons
such as car payments or just to

16 ls)£yls)e Biue

have money. The average pay for
a student is $6.00 to $6.50 an
hour.

"My job doesn't take the
place of my school activities, but it
does take up a little bit of time,"
said junior Lanie Lopez, who
works at Trademark Clothiers.

The task of juggling
homework, a job, and after school
activities can be exhausting, but
students manage to pull it off. The
average student works between 8
to 20 hours a week.

"This job is a good
experience for me," said junior
Tanya Wyniawskyj, who works 10
hours per week at The Clothing
Company.

Students learn many skills

that will help them to become
more independent. People skills,
communication, and responsibility
are just a few of the many skills
they learn while working.

"Because I want to be a
nurse, this is really helpful for my
future," said junior Kim
Schoenheit, of her job at Northern
Michigan Hospital in the Internal
Medicine department.

The school provides work
experience programs through Mrs.
Gail Cherry, the Job Coach.
Students involved must turn in
hours and lessons to receive
credit. - Tara Hazelton & Jaclyn
Cunningham

BUTTERING UP THE CUSTOMERS.

Bailing out popcorn, senior Jamie Roloff
puts together bags for the hungry
moviegoers. Because the Charlevoix
Cinema III was the weekend "hot spot,"
Roloff rarely lounged around. The hours
went by quickly for her since she worked in
a pleasant environment (Photo by Jaclyn

DOUBLING UP THE LOAD. Folding
merchandise, junior Tanya Wyniawskyj
takes her time to make the clothing look
presentable to customers. Wyniawskyj's
cheerful persona was appealing to
customers at The Clothing Company. She
brought her school work in to do in her
spare time (Photo by Jaclyn Cunningham).

COMMITTING HER TIME. Busy at work,
Job Coach Mrs. Gail Cherry overlooks her
ist of work experience students. Cherry
made job arrangements for many students,
and set-up job shadows. The work
experience program was one of the many
ways she helped students (Photo by Jaclyn

Prom: A Night Of Beads, Boas and the Beastie Boys

Upon entering the prom,
those attending were
dazzled with brightly colored
beads and tokens reminiscent of
Mardi Gras. Luckily enough the
theme was in fact Mardi Gras. Prom
took place on the 13th of May at the
Birchwood Farms Country Club in
Harbor Springs and lasted from 9pm
to 1am.

Each couple paid $50 for the
pleasure to attend. Instead of a band,
music was provided by Aardvark
Sound. This had a mixed reaction,
but overall people had a good time
regardless of their views about the
music.

Pat Kilkenny and Kristy Shindorf
were crowned king and queen and
danced to the senior song, "I Will
Remember You," by Sarah
McLauchlan. It turned out to be quite
a night.

"We love the night life; we
like to boogie," said disco king Ben
Macks who is a junior.

In case students had not
gotten their fill at dinner, there were
nachos and other snacks to munch on
as well as refreshments to quench the
thirst that is encountered after a long
night of dancing.

To coincide with the theme,
some people even brought boas and

other festive accessories.

The Birchwood Farms turned
out to be a very nice and cozy place
although students had difficulty in
locating it. The decorations were
tasteful and simple making the
atmosphere light, easy and fun.

As usual, there were many
people who came late and left early,
but the time spent there was enjoyed.
Most were somewhat drowsy by the
time the traditional breakfast at
Nanny's came about, but the annual
joke contest still took place and Tiffany
Fisher won the prize of $200. What a
way to end the night. - Marilee Brooks

destinations were such fine restaurants as

at home such as senior Ian Mays who
shares that he had graham crackers and
milk (Courtesy photo).

Graduation makes lasting impression on many students

It was an end to many
student's high school careers, but
also a beginning to the rest of their
lives. On June 4th, 2000 at 2:00
P.M., 89 CHS seniors made their
way onto the podium to receive
their high school diploma. These
young men and women were no
longer high school students; they
were now adults.

Among other things, there
was a speech by guest speaker Kit
Lieberman, who gave the students
many keys on how to be happy in
life and how to be sure that they
were doing something they loved.

There was a poem by the Rev.
Bruce Hamiltion, which was read
by Jessica Halverson, along with
speeches from valedictorians
Kirsten Brendtro and Tiffany Fisher
and salutatorian Jon Tebeau.

Principal Gary Grundman
commended the class of 2000 on
their achievements both in
academics and extracurricular
activities.

Brendtro will be attending
Michigan State University in the
fall, while Fisher is undecided,
having her choices narrowed down
to Princeton and the University of

Michigan. Tebeau will be attending
the Illinois Institute of Technology.
Halverson plans to attend
Michigan State University-James
Madison. In their poem given to
the 2000 class, Brendtro and
Fisher stated it best: "The time has
now come to venture out on our
own, with excitement and fear of a
world that's unknown. Like the first
day of school back where we
began, our whole world is
changing all over again." - Shawn
McDonough

What makes a good student? Is it their willingness to
learn, or their ability to do so? For a student involved
in both clubs and academics, it is generally the desire
for both. In striving to be a complete, well-rounded
student, nothing can be overlooked. Whether it be
the National Honor Society, the Key Club or the
Spanish Club, each brings something more to enrich
your life as a student at CHS. From fund-raisers to
field trips and everything in between, each club has
the potential to counterbalance the sometimes
overwhelming academic life. This academic life; A to
H block, gives us numerous choices - decisions on
how seriously we want to take high school. Classes
like biology, algebra and physics are examples of the
fun that can be had in making class choices.
Although some college prep is required, the extent to
which it is taken is left up to the individual student.
How we choose to develop our academic and extra
curricular life is truly a reflection of character and
drive. -Jessica Halverson & Kirsten Brendtro

ways Entertaining L

fellow peers. The SBA, (Scholastic
Boys' Association), has been an
integral part of the CHS
assemblies, providing humor to the
student body by "dancing" with
various types of dress. The SBA
members consist of: seniors Brian
Hater, TJ Christiansen, Brad
Nortley, Adam Kline, John

However, the sole purpose
of the SBA is not to entertain the
student body.

"The SBA is a special

one another," said Hater.

These guys have been
around each other and have been
friends for about 12 years.

"This is an elite crew of

and talking to people on the

created an expanding society for
not only CHS students, but the
whole world.

The traditional pen and

Why spend an hour on a letter

"Communication on the

common today for CHS students to

senior Jenny Wojan.

Another
popular form of
communication for
CHS students is using
I.C.Q. (I seek you) or chat
rooms, talking to other people
by just typing to each other. These
allow students to communicate
with other people across the
country or even across the world
without having to pay a hefty
phone bill.

So what about the future?
The new generation is learning all
about new technology which will
prepare people for the future. In
the course of time, people will get
more "money hungry," therefore,
only the cheapest and fastest ways
will be used to communicate.

beyond the classroom. The
academic clubs consists of the
Spanish Club, French Club, and
the National Honor Society.

These clubs offer students
with the opportunity to get involved
with the school. They throw many
successful fund raisers each year.

The Spanish Club sold
Rayder Cards to fund-raise for
their Spain trip. To experience
culture, they also taught the
elementary first graders Spanish
colors, numbers, animals, and
body parts.

The Spain trip was another
way for the club to experience the
culture of Spain.

"It opened my eyes to see
how they really live in Spain, and I
have gotten a greater
understanding of the reality of it. I
learned the language so much
better by speaking it and hearing
the whole time," said senior Kelly
Sullivan.

The French
club also sold
Rayder Cards, and
threw a dance for
their future trip to
France. They also
held a food drive and
made Christmas gifts.

"We do different
activities exploring culture and
that's what makes it so much fun,"
said junior Shannon Nystrom.

To be in the National
Honor society is a great honor. The
president of the NHS was John
Hughson and the Vice President
was Andy Granath. In order to be
considered for the club a student
must have a grade point average
of a 3.5 or better and he/she must
be involved with school activities.

These four years are ones of constant change. Look
back on your pictures from the previous years and
reminisce - each picture brings memories of the old
you - the one you used to be. With each passing year,
memories weave together into a S/o/y of Q/s,
complete with characters with varying personalities, all
of which will make up who we are. Coming in to CHS
as a freshman, it all seems overwhelming, yet it will
never be so easy again. Sophomore year, maybe you
get your license, and with that, comes the idea that
you are old enough to handle everything, but junior
year comes along and shatters that idea. College
prep becomes your life, from ACTs to class choices.
Then comes senior year, a year of mixed emotions.
No matter how hard you thought that your junior year
was, senior year is even harder, but in a different way.
On one hand, you're ready to embark on the next
stage of your life, yet the thought of total freedom and
the unknown is also overwhelming. But the fun is just
beginning, which makes it all worthwhile. -Jessica
Halverson & Kirsten Brendtro

Dinner Bell

Munching on tacos in Senor Scholten's Spanish IV class, Jon
Sell is surprised that he is caught on camera. Although Sell is
actually a Spanish III student, he always seemed to find
himself in the Spanish IV class when it was fiesta day.
"Zango Sell, as I call him, loves food, and no matter what
class he was in, always made his way to my class on
party days. I never minded him coming, as he
always put a smile on my face with his great
sense of humor," said Scholten. Sell also
traveled to Spain with the Spanish class
this year (Photo by Lanie Lopez).

Who's the Boss?

Taking charge of the senior courtyard, senior class

officials from left, back row, Lindsey Carland, Jenny

Wojan, Brian Cornett, James Richards, Kirsten Brendtro,

and TJ Christiansen show the school who the bosses are.

Cornett and Christiansen served as the class President

and Vice-President throughout their senior year. "I have

represented my class on the student council since the

sixth grade. I take great pleasure in relaying the thoughts

and ideas of my fellow classmates. It has not only been

fun to serve on the student council, but it has also proved

to be a great learning experience," said Carland. Thanks

to their wonderful class representatives, the seniors have

been very productive in their fundraising, and were able to

put on a beautiful prom last year (Photo by Karen

Election 2000

Attending the Forbes conference held in Grand Rapids,
Mrs. Annemarie Conway's AP Government class sports
their Forbes propaganda. These students are, back row

James Richards, Tiffany Fisher, Shaun MacMillan,
Christine Potee, Brian Hater, Brigitte Browe, Laura
Schairbaum; front row from left: Winter Kyvik, Jessica

discuss his political beliefs, the class had the opportunity
to have dinner with the candidate. "Even though Forbes
dropped out of the races early, it was a neat experience,"
said Hater of the trip (Courtesy Photo).

Crown Royalty

Waiting excitedly for the winner to
be announced, Winterfest court
members Brian Hater and Kirsten
Brendtro are on display at the
basketball game. Although neither
of them were crowned king and
queen, they remained in good
spirits throughout the evening. "It
was a lot of fun, it was a good court,
and everyone deserved to win. I
just had a lot of fun all week. Also, I
was really honored that my class
picked me to be on court," said
Hater (Photo by Lanie Lopez).

Workin' It

Preparing himself for the Christmas dance, Adam Wood,
aka, "Woody," struts around Kristy Shindorfs house while
all the girls get beautiful. "Woody" spent the evening
having dinner at La Senorita and entertaining the ladies
with his usual humorous personality. "It was fun getting
ready with all the girls. I never realized how much more
girls do to get ready for these things than guys do!" said
Wood (Photo by Lanie Lopez).

Partners In Crime

Working on the yearbook in Mrs. Karen Peterson's class can be a lot of
hard work for senior editors Kirsten Brendtro and Jessica Halverson.
Their job is to make sure all copy is accurate and mistake free, all pages
go out on time, and to oversee the entire book's completion. "Being an
editor takes a lot of time and effort, both inside and outside of the
classroom," said Brendtro. Although Brendtro and Halverson are only
second year Publications students, they have been good friends and
"partners in crime" for many years running (Photo by Karen Peterson).

Rayder Fever

Catching that Rayder spirit, junior Lanie Lopez, along

with seniors Kirsten Brendtro, Kristy Shindorf, Sara

Parrish, Taya Drost, and Ryan Vogelheim cheer on the

Rayders at a home basketball game. This group of

seniors have been friends for as long as they can

remember. "I've really enjoyed the fun times that we've

had together, and I hope that we all remain close as we

go our separate ways," said Taya Drost. Although Lopez

was not a senior, she often chummed around with this

group (Photo by Hal Evans).

Making sure that they get their senior parking
spots, Ryan Vogelheim, Brian Hater, TJ
Christiansen, Jon Sell, Matt Bennett, Michael

office to be the first ones in line for their spaces.
This group of guys arrived at school at 4 PM
the day before school started, and slept in the
parking lot until the first office officials arrived to
assign parking spots. "Although alternating
between my car and the pavement was not
very comfortable, doing this was something
that we have been looking forward to for the
last three years. It's like a rite of passage," said
Vogelheim. The faculty considered not allowing
seniors to pick their parking spaces next year,
so this group might be the last lucky enough to
do so (Courtesy Photo).

Arriba!

Enjoying the privileges of having fiestas in

Spanish IV class. Taya Drost and Jill

Ramsey get a chance to take a break from

the traditional methods of learning, and get

educated on different aspects of the

Spanish culture through things like food

and music. Drost and Ramsey also

used this time to imbibe all things

Spanish. These two have been

good friends over the years, and

have enjoyed spending time

together in classes, on sports

teams, and on the weekends.

Drost said, "I'm really glad to

have become such good

friends with Jill over the

years. I was really sad

last year when she left

me to do an exchange

program in Norway, but

now that she's back, I'm

happy that we can once

again let the good times

roll" (Photo by Lanie

Lopez).

Good Times, Great Laughs

Celebrating the arrival of winter break, best friends Erika Kammermann and Jenny Wojan are all smiles at the
Christmas assembly. Kammermann and Wojan are notorious for their smiling faces as seen in the halls, at school
events, and all around town. "Jenny and I are always in good spirits, and she knows how to make me giddy," says
Kammermann. Expressing similar views, Wojan said, "Erika makes me laugh. We've had some really great times
together during our senior year" (Photo by Lanie Lopez).

Jeepin' around, friends TJ Christiansen, Lindsey Carland,
and Pat Kilkenny display their "babies." While
Christiansen is credited for starting the senior class Jeep
trend, all three can be seen rutting around and causing all
sorts of trouble. These three Jeeps, with their experience
on and off the road, make for quite the trio. The same
could be said of these three friends. "I think having Jeeps
has brought the three of us closer than we probably would
ever have been before," said Kilkenny (Courtesy Photo).

Study Time

Highlighting the important facts, Beth Owens uses
valuable time in the library media center to study for her
next class. "I like to use my time wisely during school and
leave my free time for fun stuff," said Owens. Through
high school, Owens has been a leader on the volleyball
court, and has also excelled in other sports such as track
and basketball (Photo by Karen Peterson).

Studs? (Nope...

Taking a break from the hard labor in
Construction Tech III, Michael Ricks
and Jon Boss are caught hiding in the
shower of the construction house.
These two are usually found
somewhere where they are not
supposed to be during this class. But
Boss appreciates the class, saying, "I
love working with my hands." The
boys were excited about getting the
rest of the walls up, only to receive a
well-needed break. Building a school
house was the yearly project for
students in Construction Tech (Photo

Enjoying a relaxing Fnday night, Chris Tilley lounges

Vogelheim have been friends for many years, so seeing

the two together was not a strange occurrence. Tilley

not only enjoyed spending free time with his close

soccer team, as he was the star goalie. He played on

the team his entire four years at CHS (Photo by Lanie

Aiming high for her free

team practiced their free

been a part of the CHS

basketball team for all of

her high school career. "I

really enjoyed the season.

Although it was tough with

a new coach, Mr. Otter

really put the program

back together. He was

able to put us at almost a

five hundred for the

season [meaning they won

almost half of their games].

Playing basketball for four

years has been an

experience that will stay

with me forever. It has

given me the opportunity

to spend quality time with

a lot of good friends and

stay in shape at the same

time. I would also like to

wish the girls next year

good luck in their season; I

know they will do great,"

No matter what the

house down with his
comical personality.
Although he didn't move
here until his sophomore
year, Hughson has been
very active in Performing
Arts. Besides being
known as the "class
clown," Hughson was also
voted Winter Homecoming
King by his class (Photo by

Taking a break from their stressful senior lives, Ian Mays
and Chris Reeves enjoy their 7-Eleven Slurpees. This
was Reeves' first year attending CHS, as he moved here
from Royal Oak, Ml at the end of the summer.
Considering this, Reeves really found his niche. When he
wasn't working as a life guard at the community pool, he
was hanging with Mays, junior Lisa Miller, and sophomore
Mimi Lopez. "I wasn't too thrilled about moving away my
senior year, but Charlevoix has proved to be pretty cool
after all. I've made some really cool friends and have had
a great senior year. Ian really took me under his wing and
showed me the way of the town," said Reeves (Photo by

Leaving behind
the fear and insecurity
associated with freshman
year, the sophomore
class of 2002 was more
- , focused and had one
purpose in mind: to
make it through
another year
of high
school. It
was surprising
how quickly the time went
by.

"This year is
flying by, and high school
is getting more stressful,"
said Stacey Kenifeck.
But along with
the stress came some
advantages.

"The teachers
treat us with more
respect," said
Allison
Baldridge.

The
sophomore
class found
themselves
in the
middle of
more
home-

work, more English
essays and more respon-
sibilities.

They also
participated in winterfest
spirit week by making a
snow sculpture of a
bomb, a very glittery
banner, and performing
in a lip sync. This earned
them a first place finish
for the week.

Overall, this
year proved to be an
improvement from last
year, yet still a rather
uneventful one for the
books.

FH&lttttGft! Maturin9 and Growing

With many
adjustments
involved in moving
to the high school,
freshman year

always seems to
have its difficulties.
However, this
year's freshmen
coped with the
changes well.

members stacked
the varsity and
junior varsity
squads. Some
included #1 golfer
David Shearer, JV
basketball player
Kelly Ward, and #1
cross country
runner Liz Ulrich.

"I think our
class has matured
more and has
grown up since
middle school,
which makes
our grade
stronger,"
said
Kelly

Zimmerman.

The class
of 2003 kicked off
the year with a
second place finish
for their float
"Mighty Mouse"
during fall
homecoming.

The
freshmen also
sponsored a dance,
which proved to be
very profitable.

They managed to
raise roughly $700
for their class at
this event.

"I've
enjoyed my
freshman year. It
has had its ups and
downs, but I've
loved every minute
of it," said Megan
Arnold.

As
freshman years
come and go, this
one has already
begun to show
hopeful potential.

Scholtens had their daughter, Abby Noelle, on
February 2, 2000. This is their second daughter, the
first being Kylee Jocelyn, who is now 2 years old.

The Conways are expecting May to be a good
month, but "Ouch." They are due May 7, 2000, and
Mr. Conway notes "I'm not prepared, but I'm not
scared."

Peterson is expecting March 25, 2000. " I'm
looking forward to not being in school this spring, and
spending quality time at home," she said of her
maternity leave.

April 8, 2000 is "the day" for the Swansons.
"I'm excited, not prepared, and if pregnancy were a

Swanson.

Run fast, play hard, jump high, push it.. Just do it.
Sports are a combination of training rigorously and
then applying it to the best of your ability when it
counts. CHS has pumped out numerous teams that
know how to do just that. From the men's soccer
team who had the most awards ever received in a
season, to the men's alpine ski team, who advanced
to state finals, to cross country, who advanced a few
members to state, it was a great year for the "big
hitters," yet there were some smaller, less easily
recognizable winners. Adding a new coach to the mix
was difficult, yet teams like the men's wrestling or
women's volleyball stuck together and proved just
what a team really meant. But in the words of T.S.
Eliot, "Only those who risk going too far can possibly
find out how far one can go." And with the right
combination, these teams, too, can go far.
Although the bigger teams generally get the most
applause, we are proud of all, because together, they
create the S/ory of Q/s. -Jessica Halverson &
Kirsten Brendtro

fhe 1999 Rayders suffered an early loss in the season
resulting in a trend the Rayders found hard to beat.
The team ended their season with a disappointing 1-8
finish. Despite their losses, the team did improve their defensive
game and above all learned valuable lessons.

"I learned it takes a lot of preparation to win a football
game," said junior Matt Horon.

Games weren't the only thing the Rayders lost.
Throughout the season, the Rayders were faced with a number of
injuries that hurt their starting lineup. There were three players
that missed more than six games, and an additional five players
missed at least one game.

"It was a frustrating year, but a number of young players
gained valuable experiences that should lead to a big
improvement next fall," said Coach Klinger.

Throughout these tough times players managed to
achieve many accomplishments. At the end of their season,
juniors Ben Coen and Matt Horon received all league honors for
the Lake Michigan Conference. - Hal Evans and Chad Mackowiak

Winning over half of their games, the JV team

second in the conference.

Helping to make this team so successful was
coach Mrs. Lisa Carlson. With her guidance and
support, the team progressed throughout the season.
Also, varsity coach, Mr. Jason Otter assisted with the
team in occasional combined JV and varsity practices.
At these practices, JV players worked on the same
plays and drills as the varsity team.

In the first year playing high school basketball,
the freshmen women's team had an outstanding
season. They only lost four games out of the 16
games played. Two of the four losses were to Boyne
City, one of Charlevoix's most long-standing rivals.

"It was a good season for the size of the team
we had to work with," said Lindsey Miller.

Despite its small size of only eight players, the
team proved that it could be successful.

The team was led though the season by coach
Mr. Mike Dennis. This was the first year that Dennis
coached women's basketball at CHS.

Voted MVP for the season was Natashia
Kleiber. Michelle Swem was the most improved
player. - Kirsten Brendtro

Women's Varsity Basketball

Sn September, the team had a dark cloud hanging over their
heads. Reminders of the 2-19 1998 season were still a
current memory. But not long after, they realized what they
had, a new coach and capable, determined players. With these,
they became much stronger. They wanted to make progress and
win some games, and that is exactly what they did.

"We have come a long way since last year thanks to Coach
[Jason] Otter pushing us so hard," said senior Sara Parrish.

The cloud didn't let them see clear at first, as the women
got off to a bad start. Once it cleared, the women picked it up
playing to their max, giving it their all.

The top scorers were senior Kerstin Larsen averaging 18

Meghan Vogel averaging 12 points.

The teams' co-captains were senior Taya Drost, Hoffman,

sportsmanship and leadership by helping each other out when
needed throughout the season.

"We got off to a slow start, but we picked it up winning eight
out of our last ten games," said first year coach Jason Otter.

even seniors had a lot of experience and talent from past
years. Because of this, the team had high expectations,
and there were many goals to accomplish. CHS varsity
soccer men had an excellent beginning. They won six games in
a row, which was a new school record.

Along with the winning streak, for the first time ever,
Charlevoix became Northern Michigan Soccer League champs
after winning against Roscommon 3-2. They also won the
Leland tournament at the beginning of the season and set a new
overall record of 12-6-0.

"We had a very good season and I had a lot of fun, but
now it is over and I will really miss it," said senior Jon Boss.

There were also some individual records made. Senior
Mike Ricks scored five goals in one game to tie senior Sean
Stockman's previous record, while Boss had six assists in the
same game. It certainly was the best season in school history.
Many players received recognition on their fine season.
All-Conference, District and Region were earned by Boss and
Stockman. Ryan Vogelheim was All-District and All-Region. Chris
Tilley and Andy Granath earned All-District. Tilley also earned All-
Conference. Stockman, Vogelheim and Boss were also All-State
Honorable mentions. -Tomek Barczynski

Golf

y the end of the season, the golf team proved that it does

not necessarily hurt to be youthful. The combination of

experience from the senior golfers and vitality from the
youth proved to be quite powerful.

One such underclassman was freshman David Shearer, the
number one player on the team.

"It has been a real pleasure to see him progress as a
freshman and I'm looking forward to to having him on the team
next year," said coach Jim Glynn of Shearer.

Overall the team had an excellent season, with a win in
eight out of twelve meets. At invitational meets, the team always
placed sixth place or better. The conference championship and
regionals gave them second place, which led to an appearance at
state, where they placed 21st.

The team captain, senior Jon Sell said, "The youth didn't
help at the beginning of the season due to inexperience, but their
talent definitely helped them overcome their lack of experience,
which helped overall."

Sell definitely aided in the team's successful season. He tied
with two of the CHS individual golf records.

"We had a very strong team with good senior leadership.
The team also had strong work ethic, and a lot pride," said coach
Glynn. - Steve Pirie & Britanny Herrada

Men's Cross-Country

L n\ eturning many experienced runners, the men's cross
I — {country season was a successful one. The men's team got
Uu second place at the conference meet in East Jordan with
sophomore Zack Hopkins finishing fourth. Hopkins received an
all-conference title for his finish. Earning an all-conference
honorable mention were sophomore Gordie Selph and junior Josh
Popenhagen.

Other highlights of the season include their win at the
Gladwin Invitational with the men's team beating ten class B
teams for their win.

"In the attempts to try to rebuild the Charlevoix cross
country tradition, the win at the Gladwin class B Invitational will go
a long way," said coach Ken Plude.

Although the varsity team didn't come away with a state-
qualifying finish at the regional meet in Elk Rapids against 21
other teams, Hopkins did finish in seventh place. Hopkins' finish
qualified him for the state meet as an individual, where he finished
45th.

"So how did I end up here?" questioned Hopkins to coach
Ken Plude on his ride down to Brooklyn, Ml for his state
competition. - Lindsey Simmons & Jennifer Westenbreok

fter graduating all but two varsity runners, the
A\ crucial amount of experience needed for the varsity team

I looked scarce. Despite the lack of experience, the
women's cross country team had an exceptionally successful
season. Though the varsity team did not qualify as a whole for the
state competition, freshman Liz Ulrich was able to compete,
finishing fourth at the regional competition in Elk Rapids, and then
27th at state, receiving a medal.

"At first, I didn't want to compete without my teammates
with me, but they supported me the whole way and I'm glad I got
the chance to go," said Ulrich, reflecting on her state competition.

Ulrich also received an all-conference title, and seniors
Laura Schairbaum and Winter Kyvik received all-conference
honorable mention when the women's team finished third at the
conference meet in East Jordan.

Other highlights of the season include the varsity win at
the East Jordan Invitational, where Charlevoix beat seven other
teams.

" It was a good confidence builder for an inexperienced
team, as well as one of the major highlights of the season," said
coach Ken Plude of the East Jordan Invitational win. -Lindsey

With one of the best JV records in the last 10
years, the 15-5 Rayders proved they could win night in
and night out.

"I never expected us to win 15 games, and the five
we lost were really close or we were just having an off
night," said sophomore Shawn McDonough.

"These guys are a good group of kids. They have
fun and play hard at the same time. I enjoyed working
with this group, it was a fun season. If they keep
working hard and stay a tight knit group, they can go
as far as they take themselves," said coach Brandon

sophomore Bo Moore.

The JV team pulled off an excellent season with a
record of 6-3, despite losing their first two games in a

"It's hard to get the momentum going after losing
your first two games; however, we managed to pull
ourselves together and rise up above the losing
streak," said sophomore Landon Brown.

Team unity proved to be the determining factor in
the success of the team's performance. The team

other.

succeed at Grayling. At camp, we had to do

fhis year was a tough and worthwhile year for the team. They had
a lot of extra assistance, which helped them improve
over the season. Coach Scott Kelly, assistant coaches Pete
Scholten, Tom Kennedy and Mike Teuscher were all a part of the
coaching staff of the baseball team.

"We have had a very good season considering the amount of
underclassmen on the team. We have improved a lot over the season
and have played some very good teams this year," said junior Jeremiah
Teuscher.

The team captains were juniors Jeremiah Teuscher and Matt
Horon. They played 11 games against Class A and Class B schools, and
considering Charlevoix is a Class C school this was an extremely
difficult and a big achievement.

"The best thing about this team is that for the first time in my three
years, everybody gets along really well," said Horon.

The squad managed to have a record of 5-5 in conference. The
Rayders had a young team, with two seniors, three juniors, five
sophomores, and six freshmen. Having quite a few underclassmen on
the team usually slows things down; that was not the case for this year's
baseball team. The team did outstanding, they put forth a lot of
dedication and hard work.

"We have played competitively against some high caliber teams.
We are a very young team that has a bright future," said Scholten.

WaAM

When winter sports began this year there were
many rumors circulating CHS that there wouldn't be a
wrestling team. Without a coach and the lack of
participation from athletes, the idea of a wrestling
team seamed slim to none.

Then came Mr. Gary Probert, a former CHS
wrestler himself and first time coach. He managed to
build a young team, mostly made up of freshmen and
sophomores and improved that team to a respectable
.500 record. Due to the fact that the team was young
and most were in low weight classes, the Rayders had
to forfeit a lot of matches.

"The team never got discouraged and worked as
hard as they could even though we didn't have a big
team," said coach Probert. - Hal Evans

In their first year playing high school basketball,
the freshmen basketball team improved
tremendously. With a final record of 9-9, the
freshmen learned what it takes to be successful in
high school sports. Even though the team lost some
games, they had high spirits throughout the season.

" I enjoyed seeing the players learn a new system,
and grow and develop into that system. They
improved a great deal throughout the season," said
coach Tim Volovsek.

Coach Volovsek stressed that he was most
impressed with the way his team stepped up and
really put forth the effort to learn the new basketball
system.

"I watched them struggle the first few games, and
then watched them learn how to play the way I was
asking them to," said Volovsek. - Keith Patrick & Hal

yr% fter the retirement of coach Brenda Bryan, who coached
J£\ in Charlevoix for 15 years, the varsity volleyball team
" " started the season with a new coach, Carolyn Loper.
Loper decided to spend this season rebuilding the team. Because
it was a type of new beginning, everyone had to start over,
causing a record of 2-26-2.

Despite the losses, there are a lot of positive things to
look to in the future.

At the end of the season, the women were showing great
determination to win. Everyone enjoyed playing and wanted to
practice. The atmosphere on the team was really up-beat and
close-knit.

"Even though we didn't have a good season, I really
enjoyed playing. But now it is over and I will miss high school
volleyball," said senior Beth Owens.

Senior Taya Drost was voted the Most Valuable Player,
while sophomore Jenny Miller was voted the Most Improved
Player. The Spirit Award was given to sophomore Taryn Drost.

Loper looked upon the season as a positive, saying,
"Within the next two years, the girls will win the league
championship." - Tomek Barczynski

cheerleading were new to the school spirit, since they

The winter JV squad showed just as much
support and willingness to learn new moves. Also the

"They are awfully young, very talented and
they have made a very rapid inprovement [since the
start of the season]," said the new coach Greg
Swanson, about the JV volleyball team. Swanson
taught the girls new skills and helped prepare them
for the varsity level.

Krista Swenor, named Most Spirited Player,
never let the team lose intensity despite their meager
record of 3-14.

The team had a rough start on the season
because they were having trouble focusing on the
game. Once they kept a steady pace they came
together as a team.

"Our effort grew, but we still need work as
team," said Kati Swenor, the MVP of the team, when
asked how she thought the team had done as a
whole. - Mimi Lopez, Rachel Kanine & Beth Arnold

e had high expectations and for the most part, we
met them," said senior Joel Trubilowicz.
The men went to state finals and finished in sixth place.
That was disappointing after making it so far; they had hoped to
do better.

"I had a lot of fun and I don't regret this year, but it was
disappointing that we didn't do better at state," said freshman
Brad Long.

The excitement after regionals was overwhelming, since
the team had not appeared at finals since 1994. Making it there
was amazing, but it wasn't unbelievable.

The talent and success of the team had a lot to do with
the "anchors," - senior, four year members Todd Freidinger, Joel
Trubilowicz, Steve Pirie, Shaun MacMillan, Tiffany Fisher, Alisha
Johnson, and Kirsten Brendtro. These racers knew the sport well,
and had incredible drive to win. It was them that instilled the spirit
in the rest of the team and set the attitude for the season.

"There was much to be learned, but all we had to do was
watch the four year lettermen. Ski team was awesome. We really
pulled together and created for quite a rowdy team," said senior,
first year member Jessica Halverson.

Tiffany Fisher, who was the lone qualifier for state on the
women's side, said, "The most important thing in skiing is to have
fun."

This was quite true of the team, although they were also
able to prove their skills by making it to state. -Brittany Herrada

Varsity Cheerleading

-l-C-T-O-R-Y !" This was the call shouted by the varsity
cheerleaders heard in the stands of the Rayder
sporting events. The cheerleaders were a great
morale booster egging on the Rayder football and basketball
teams to go out and win.

Along with a great season of cheering, the winter varsity
cheerleading team competed in three cheerleading competitions.
One of the competitions was held at Hope College. Out of the
many teams that competed there, the Rayder girls team took
second place. The cheerleading team also competed in a district
cheerleading competition, in which they took third place. After
their third place performance at districts, they went on to
regionals, where they unfortunately didn't qualify to go on.

Although the winter cheerleading squad cheered all year
long for a great basketball team, the fall cheerleaders had their
work cut out for them, with the football team's record, a tough 1 -
9.

"It was tough, but it was fun. We could get fans pumped
up faster. We could get them excited to win," said junior Torrie
Kramer about the football team's tough season. "Overall, it was a
blast."

The team practiced everyday after school, from 4:30 until
6:30. They would practice their jumps, cheers and dances.

Varsity Men's Basketball

pec-busses, painted cars, superfan t-shirts, and a trip to the
Breslin center were memories of years past that the 1999-
2000 basketball players were trying to repeat. Hoop
dreams of pine pounding, shot scoring success were in the hearts
of all of the players, along with the entire Charlevoix community.
The experience of senior players Shay Hutchison, Adam
Wood, Sean Stockman, Russell Ward, and Scott Pair, helped the
team to be quite successful. By using the skills that they had
learned along the years and the experience they had from playing
together for so long, the senior boys were really able to pull the
whole team together and make it stronger.

Still riding the wave of success from the previous season,
the varsity players used skills taught to them by third year coach
Keith Haske, along with immense talent and experience to
continue their success. After becoming the district and regional
champions for the second year in a row, the varsity players were
determined to push on, and make it back to the Breslin Center,
Michigan State University's basketball arena.

"It would be great to go back to the Breslin and show the
younger guys what it's like to make it so far. That way, they'll have
something to work even harder for next year," said senior Adam
Wood, co-captain. Unfortunately, the Rayders' season ended
shortly after their regional game when they lost to Negaunee,
prohibiting their advancement to the Breslin. - Lindsey Simmons

fhis team just dripped with teamwork. With two new
coaches, and an almost all new roster of juniors, the
team had a fresh start and lots of enthusiasm.

"Since we have a new coach, we learned a lot of new
things. We got along really well and worked together which made
the season more fun," said junior Jaclyn Cunningham.

The players regularly showed their appreciation for their
teammates' effort and hard work. They started a tradition to make
one player who gave it her all feel appreciated by the whole team.
This player received the "game ball" as a trophy.

"It really made me feel like I was doing something good for
the team and that they needed me," said junior Shandra
Spencely.

Spencely received the "game ball" after she played a
particularly strong game. She had a triple, caught a pop fly, and
caught two or three outs all in one game.

"We had a good year and good attitudes, and I'm really
going to miss it," said senior Sarah Jones.

The abundance of returning seniors provided a stronghold
for the younger players to start this season. They set the example
to have fun and play well. They played with all their hearts and
had fun at the same time. -Heather Belding and Beth Arnold

|obody expected the 2000 women's soccer team to get
knocked out in the first round of districts. Although they
played as well as expected, the Rayders fell short, as
Harbor Springs defeated them, 2-1 .

"We did our best, Harbor got a few lucky shots that turned into
goals and the time just ran out," said coach Hagen Manker.

The time might have also run out on their season. Coaches
have said that this is the best well-rounded team in CHS history.
With the most seniors on the team ever, it will be difficult to
replace their leadership abilities and skill.

"This is the season for our team. We have many experienced
juniors and seniors that have paved the way for younger girls.
Our team has what it takes to go far, we just have to get together
and use our skills," said senior Lindsey Simmons.

The Rayders have raked in many accomplishments that
include facing obstacles head on, from the loss of players to
numerous injuries throughout the year. They received academic-
all state honors during the 1998-1999 season and are expected
to receive it again this year.

As another season came to an end, the thing that will be most
remembered about this team is that they were the only women's
soccer team to have a winning season in CHS history.

are what have really tested the ability of the men's track
team. From baby whales, to long jump, hurdles, to relays,
the men's track team has had a season of growth and gained
experience. Showing that they can pick up from disappointment,
and regrouping to show perseverance, the team has really come
together.

Along with the building of experience for the new members,
ones that have experience have been using this year build
strength.

"It was my senior year, and last sport season so I wanted to
go out with a bang, and leave the underclassmen with something
to remember me by. And although things haven't all worked out
the way I thought they should I have learned to fight through
adversity and never give up on myself," said senior Brian Cornett

printing towards an unbelievable finish for the women's

track season, members trained hard for many

different fields, and running events.

Strength, and support among members was key for the
team as a whole, and led them to many strong team finishes,
during season's meets, as well as a strong finishes at regionals.

Qualifying for the state meet on June 3, 2000, were
individuals sophomore Jenny Miller for the long jump,
sophomore Kati Swenor for the two mile run, and the 3200 meter
relay of Swenor, freshmen Liz Ulrich and Natasha Kleiber, and
senior Laura Schairbaum.

"I believe that the team unity among these girls was what
really pulled us through our season. The girls were there to
support each other through their toughest races, and that is really
important if the team wants to finish at the top as a whole," said
Jennifer Peters, first year head women's track coach.

"I was really excited to make it as far as state, but I was
really nervous, and that made me not do so well," said Miller.

Miller placed 20th in the long jump, Swenor placed 11th in
the two mile and also broke the school record with a time of
12:09, and the 3200 meter relay team finished with a time of
10:18.7. - Lanie Lopez & Lindsey Simmons

fhe tennis team had a lot of returning veterans which
helped the younger squad learn the game. Though the
team will be losing some valuable seniors, it will hopefully
pick up some of the up-and-coming freshmen.

At the beginning of the season the team had a scare of not
having a coach, but luckily, Garth Miller and Cindy Brooks
stepped in to help the kids out. Combined, the two have three
years of coaching experience between them, they have done a
very nice job for such a short time they had to get the team in
shape. The team ended out the season with a 5-6 record.

In the Boyne City Invitational senior Scott Pair and
sophomore Allen Brooks, the number one and number four
singles, made it to their flight final, but lost in two sets of their final
match.

During the conference meet Pair was the only player to
make it to the finals of his flight, losing only to Randy Woods of
Harbor Springs for the all conference title.

When the tennis team went off to the regional meet, they
were not able to take their regular line up because of disciplinary
reasons. The doubles team of seniors Andy Granath and Joel
Trubilowicz took the regionals number one seeded team, from
Harbor Springs, to three sets but lost in a tie breaker.

"The team has really shown a lot of tenacity and
determination," said Garth Miller.

"Freshmen teams are there to improve, not to
be the star players," said coach Ms. Ann Gorney. This
year's freshmen volleyball team proved this statement
to be totally true. The freshmen team ended up with
five wins and eight losses, a record better than both
the JV or varsity volleyball teams this year.

Although the team only had four constant
players, some of the freshmen girls that had been
moved up to JV took turns moving down to help out
the freshmen team.

"We had a really good season for only having
four full time players, and the girls that came down
from junior varsity helped us out a lot," said freshmen
Lindsey Miller.

The girls improved their bumping, setting,
spiking, and serving skills and learned the basics of
the game. The team showed much improvement

"There's no crying in baseball," and there
wasn't and crying this year, despite their season
consisting of only one winning game, the JV softball
team had a fundamental season. This year's team
was a young one, consisting of seven freshmen and
only one sophomore.

"Even though we lost a lot, we still had fun
and improved our playing as the season progressed.
Winning one game was the highlight of the season,"
said freshman Erin Burns.

The team was coached by Mr. Don Potter,
who taught the team the basics of the game, and
helped them to improve their skills by the end of the
season.

Although the team was focused on
improvement, freshmen Lorna Kilborn says, "Our
entire incentive for doing anything in softball was,
FOOD!" Meredith and freshman Candace Boss were
quick to agree, food was their reward for a good
game! - Mimi Lopez & Jennifer Westenbroek

he received a lot of playing time, acquiring more on
the field experience (Photo by Kirsten Brendtro)

Stockman shoots for two during the quarter final
game against Negaunee. The Rayders rallied the

U£e S/ony of Q/s is made possible in part to certain
organizations that choose to take a positive role in the

community. The role that they play is a valuable one,
considering that this book would not be possible
without their support and cooperation. Living in a
small community, there are several events which
characterize who we are. Some of these are the
Apple Fest, the Venetian Festival, and even our
opinions regarding these events. When differences
are put aside and the decision to unite is made, as
long as it's with the best intention for what is good for
the entire community, only the best can come from it.
The community, as this is being written, is up in arms
regarding the Board of Education's decision to
develop a new school on Marion Center Road. There
is a split community, a large number actively favoring
the construction of the new school, while the other
side is protesting the decision. Thank you to our
supporters, for making our S/ory possible. -Jessica

World Stories:

Creator of the popular comic strip Peanuts, Charles
Schultz died on Feb. 12, 2000. His beloved strip
debuted in seven newspapers on Oct. 2, 1950. Soon
after, Peanuts became the most popular strip in
history, translated into more then twenty languages
and published in 2,600 newspapers around the world.
Peanuts was Schultz's life, and how true to form it
was that he died hours before the last Peanuts article
ran in the papers. He lived to tell the truths of live
through his modest comic strip, and he did so with
humor, that has not died, humor that lives on in reruns
of his strip.

New Years Eve 1999 was a huge event as
hundreds of thousands of people descend upon
Times Square in New York as well as all the other
great cities of the world to experience the dawn of
the new millennium. "Doomsday" was predicted
this year, and the crash of millions of computers
was thought to be inevitable, yet the sun rose on
2000, and hundreds of thousands of people who
prepared for the worst were left with canned food
and generators that couldn't be returned.

The Microsoft Way

Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates sits on stage during a
video portion of the Windows 95 Launch Event
Aug. 24, 1995, on the company's campus in Redmond,
Wash. The word "start" is spelled out behind Gates. A
Harvard University dropout, Gates cofounded Microsoft
with Paul Allen in 1975. By 1980, he had licensed his
MS-DOS operating system to IBM for its inaugural
personal computer. Microsoft's Windows 95 computer
operating system and Internet Explorer browser debuted
in 1995 at the dawn of the internet. Gates is considered
to be the world's richest private citizen with an estimated
worth of 90 billion dollars (AP Photo).

Atomic Bomb drops on Hiroshima,

Japan

A massive column of
i\ billowing smoke,
thousands of feet high,
mushrooms over the city
of Nagasaki, Japan, after
an atomic bomb was
dropped by the United
States on Aug. 9, 1945. A
B-29 plane delivered the
blast killing approximately
70,000 people, with
thousands dying later of
radiation effects. The
attack came three days
after the U.S. dropped the
world's first atomic bomb
on the Japanese city of
Hiroshima. The attacks
brought about Japan's
unconditional surrender,
and the war ended when
the papers of surrender
were accepted (AP
Photo).

Vietnam War: The Viet Cong vs. South Vietnam

South Vietnamese National Police Chief Brig General Nguyen Ngoc Loan executes a Viet Cong officer
with a single pistol shot in the head in Siagon, Vietnam on February 1, 1968. Carrying a pistol and
wearing civilian clothes, the Vietcong gurellia was captured near Quang Pagoda, identified as an officer
and taken to the police chief. Vietnam was divided into the communist-ruled North, and the South,

supported by the
U.S. after Ho Chi
Minh ended
French colonial
rule in 1954. The
Vietnam War
ended with Paris
peace talks on
January 23,
1973. South
Vietnam declared
unconditional
surrender to the
Viet Cong on
April 30, 1975,
ending 30 years
of war (AP

King of Rock 'n'

Roll

Elvis Presley is shown with his Gibson J-200
guitar in a 1957 MGM studio publicity photo. Born in
Tupelo, Miss., Elvis was an immediate sensation in the
mid-1950s with his blend of blues rock and rockabilly.
Because
of his
stage
gyrations,
television
producers
initially
refused
to show
him
below
the waist
on

screen.
Critics
called
him

"Elvis the
Pelvis,"
but his
fans
called
him the
"King of

Rock 'n' Roll." The Elvis empire grew with live
erformances, records, films and a grand estate in
Memphis, Tenn., known worldwide as Graceland. Elvis
died at Graceland on Aug. 1 6, 1 977. He was 42 (AP
Photo).

Civil Rights Movement

Rosa Parks, whose refusal to move to the back of
a bus touched off the Montgomery bus boycott of
the beginning of the civil rights movement, is
fingerprinted by Deputy Shriff D.H. Lackey in
Montgomery, Ala., Feb. 22, 1956. She was among
some 100 people charged with violating segregation
laws (AP Photo/Gene Herrick).

"Beatlemania"

Ed Sullivan, center, stands with
The Beatles during a rehearsal
for the British group's first American
appearance, on the "Ed Sullivan
Show," in New York on Feb. 9. 1964.
From left: Ringo Starr, George
Harrison, Sullivan, John Lennon and
Paul McCartney. The rock 'n' roll band
known as "The Fab Four" was seen
by 70 million viewers. "Beatlemania"
swept the charts with twenty No. 1 hits
and more than 100 million records
sold. The Beatles broke up in 1970,
and John Lennon was shot to death in
front of his New York apartment
building on Dec. 8, 1980 (AP Photo).

Invention of the Television

A United States serviceman views television with his
family at the U.S. Limestone, Maine, base on July
1 ,1954. Nearly every household in the United States has
at least one television set and viewers have their sets on
an average of seven hours daily. Media specialist
Marshall McLuhan felt that it didn't matter what is shown
on the screen, but it is the medium that is the message.
Television, the tool of mass communications, gave birth to
cable television, encompassing time and thought as no
other cultural phenomenon ever has (AP Photo).

Esmc2

Dr. Albert Einstein writes out an equation for the
density of the Milky Way on the blackboard at the
Carnegie Institute, Mt. Wilson Observatory headquarters
in Pasadena
Calif., on Jan.
14,1931. Einstein
achieved world
recognition in
1905, at the age
of 26, when he
expounded his
Special Theory of
Relativity which
proposed the
existence of
atomic energy.
Though his
concepts
ushered in the
atomic age, he
was a pacifist
who warned

against the arms race. Einstein, who radically changed
mankind's vision of the universe, won the Nobel Prize in
Physics in 1922 (AP Photo).

Working diligently as he always did, senior TJ Christiansen double

checks that all the ads sold are in the yearbook. Christiansen

stayed on task throughout the whole school year, and never got in

any trouble. Christiansen was the Business Manager of the

Publication's classes, and did an exceptional job all year (Photo by

Karen Peterson).

This year's Publication classes have been busy
working all year to make this yearbook one to
remember. The new students in the
Publications classes were amazed at all the work that
had to be done to put a 164 page yearbook together,
but all went well and everyone is excited for this 2000
yearbook.

The first job to be done for the year-
book was to pick a theme. E and G block students
wanted the yearbook to be something like a story
book, and the brainstorming led to "The Story of Us."
The yearbook cover chosen is a embossed black
cover with silver writing.

The year started with trying to raise money for the
yearbook. Businesses were happy to buy an ad for
the yearbook. The total cost of the yearbook was
$15,938.96. The classes were able to raise
$15,053.25 in ad sales. The rest of the money came

Yearbook editor, senior Jessica Halverson, reviews over one of the
yearbook pages. Halverson, along with the other editor senior
Kirsten Brendtro, had to work overtime correcting spreads, and
picking up the slack. Both Halverson and Brendtro worked their
hearts out to make this 2000 Rayder yearbook one to remember
always (Photo by Mimi Lopez).

from yearbook sales.

The books were sold at the first dance for $35.
After the dance, students could buy a yearbook for
$40 until Christmas. Then the price went up to $45.
Two hundred and fifty yearbooks were sold this year.

The yearbook was put together on eight Power
Macintosh 5400/200 and three iMac computers to
bring the total of computers to eleven. Although, most
of the time not all eleven computers worked. At one
point during the year the server died, but thankfully
everything was recovered.

Adobe PageMaker 6.5 was used to layout the
yearbook.

Many fonts were used throughout the yearbook.
ANNA, nUHGlRlPIVII, Siggg, Kuptuaf Scrip/, and Arial were
some fonts used within it.

The Publication's class would like to thank Sally
Manke, who helped us in the assembly of this year's
2000 Rayder yearbook. We also want to thank Mrs.
Karen Peterson, Yearbook Advisor, for putting so
much time into editing the yearbook, even though she
had her hands full with a new baby. Also a big thanks
to editors Kirsten Brendtro and Jessica Halverson for
dedicating countless hours to this year's yearbook.
Finally a huge thanks to Ms. Michelle Carlson, who
took over Mrs. Peterson's place, and did her best to
guide the classes through the last weeks of school.

Notes

"Have you talked to Mrs. Peterson?" "Have you seen the baby?"
"When is that page due again?" This last question is typical of not only
this year, but all the Publications years past, but the first two? What's the
deal? Well, Mrs. Karen Peterson, our Publications teacher, left the week
prior to spring break to give birth to Benjamin David, who came on March
23, 2000. As we were used to being able to just consult Mrs. Peterson if
we had a problem or a question with something, we were all a bit nervous
to see exactly what would happen after she left. Before she left,
however, we were able to make a trip to the Traverse City Record Eagle,
to which junior Halby Evans and sophomore Mimi Lopez questioned her
ability to survive the trip without her water breaking. This and the names
of her soon to be child were common concerns in the class, until after she
left, when we had different worries. Worries of how the book would get
done, and if it did, how well it would get done swirled in our heads, but
our worries were quickly dissolved when we realized just how capable we
all were of getting the work done ourselves. Ms. Michelle Carlson, stand
in for Mrs. Peterson, made the sometimes trying transition as smooth as
possible, with only a few glitches provided by the rowdy seniors. The
mostly senior class, G block, was the complete opposite of quiet, mostly
underclassmen E block. Both classes, however, proved their worth and
pumped out the pages, much to the happiness and relief to senior, co-
editors, Kirsten Brendtro and Jessica Halverson. Mrs. Peterson made
some stops into class, to make sure everything was going well, with little
Ben, who was passed around, to his dismay. It was an interesting year
and there were certainly moments of chaos and question, but out of all of
that, a book that we believe truly represents the Story of Us emerged.
We are proud of this book, and in turn, hope that it will provide an
accurate and valuable testament to life here at CHS. Don't forget where
you came from, and don't blink, or it'll be gone. -Jessica Halverson

164 c;/os,n

As the 1999-2000 school year
came to a close,
many emotions, thoughts and
ideas came to mind. First off,
congratulations to the Class of
2000, a group of spunky, spirited
and individualistic people who
although don't always follow the
game plan the way everyone
expected them to, they followed
their own plans, which was the
mark of a great class. We must
begin to accept and embrace the
changes that are taking place,
because the end is inevitable. As
we have grown and changed,
gotten to know the rules and how

m to break them, developed

1 friendships that will grow and
friendships that will fade, we
have left our mark on CHS.
Although this year has been
anything but smooth, it is the

I bumps that make life interesting.

I "Should you shield the canyons
from the windstorms, you would
never see the beauty of their
carvings," as Elizabeth Kubler-
Ross once said. Truer words
have never been spoken. But we

I will all come full circle and unite
n the end as we then must part

I and go our separate ways. We
take our bow, say our good-byes

and go out, never, for a second,
forgetting the c^/oryof'Us. -
Jessica Halverson
